The Last Blooms Of The Season :(( (Pics)

16 years ago

Hello the last blooms of the season in NY happen to be my first flush of the year.It is a flush of about 20 flowers. I left for the weekend for about 4 days and the buds were about 3 inches long and the tree was at eye level. im 5'9 and when i came back the tree was taller than me and the buds were blossoms that opened the next day. i took these photos today which is when to flowers got their color. its a Peach Versicolor the color gets a little deeper than this. its funny how fast they grow. well thats enough talking.Sorry for the photo size can you tell me how to get them thumbnail size on photobucket or should i try a different photo host?

Here Are Thr Pics:

That's beautiful. My Versi Peach haven't bloomed yet this season and I don't know if they will. Almost all my brugs have been late this year. I'm just getting a first flush on many of my plants as well. Better late then never!

They're beautiful. This is so depressing, not only because it's the end but for most of us in the cooler zones the brugs are just now at peak. I hate having to chop off all the flowers, especially when it's the first buds on a plant that I haven't even seen yet. My NOL, MM and a dbl White as well as a few NOIDs all have buds that will have to go. They are inground so I can't even move them to the GH to continue blooming : (

Wow again. I could kick myself now for turning down Jeannie Deaver's Dream. For some reason I didn't think the color would be that deep and rich....And just when I think I don't like something you post one of your daylilies that proves me wrong. In this case it's white (or what passes for white) and a pattern or eyed daylily. Ruby Lipstick is beautiful, and the pattern on Fabrege Easter is a real stunner. Does the pattern color hold all day or fade out?.....Maryl

Debra, Thanks for commenting on that plant ID. I apparently had a marker shift. I checked my paper map of the garden and you are right. It is indeed WHEEL OF TIME. Which by the way, didn't bloom for me last year either. Thanks for correcting the mistake. I'm still quite impressed with the eyezone. I'm glad you like the looks of the seedling. I can't wait to see what the blooms look like on down the line. It has 3 scapes up right now. With a 6.5" bloom with diamond dusted sepals and 4 way branching on the scape. I'm very happy with what I see so far. None of it's sibs have bloomed yet, and 3 of those have scapes up right now. Linda Linda

Maryl, Yes, it is good to have 3 daughters, that are always helping me out some kind of way.Two of them live just 9 miles away and my third daughter lives in N. C. but she comes to visit every couple years.And shes always thinking of what she can get for me when she comes, I think.one year, she thought my recliner wasn't confortable enough, for some one with a bad back I guess, so she bought me a new recliner. I found the photo I took of beautiful edging with its first bloom this year, and it bloomed May 9th for first bloom, and last bloom August 26th, so it really did bloom a long time.I didn't have as many rebloom scapes as the year before, but, we did have a miserable winter, and I seen on the weather channel a few days ago, that they expecting the same for this coming winter, too. jean
